  • Took a day off work to head down to Dover to to see the lorries coming in & out, and I was definitely not disappointed. This video features countless older, rare trucks including Volvo FH2s & FH3s, Mercedes Actros MP3s, DAF XF105s, and even an incredibly rare UK registered articulated Ford Cargo Euro 6! I hope you enjoy as much as I did :)

    Something about foreign trucks to me is so interesting! Personally I love the Spanish ones

      Yeah I absolutely agree! I love seeing plates from the Balkans like Montenegro & Albania, as well as ones from Türkiye, the Caucasus region, Russia, and especially Central Asia. I once saw a Tajikistan plate truck at Cobham Services on the M25!!

      @@paywastsabir1120 It’s entirely possible. I’ve seen plates from Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, they’re all really far. Israel is far too, but it’s still possible to get to the UK from there by truck. It does happen 🤷‍♂️

    Used to truck spot at Dover back in the early 80's. Take a packed lunch and park myself by the roundabout at the Port entrance for most of the day!

    • @ss.spotting
      @ss.spotting  Месяц назад +1

      Man I am so jealous of you! You got to see all the *really* old trucks. What a time to be a truck spotter.
      I did similar, I parked up in the town centre & took a packed lunch with me and stood on the pedestrian crossing island. I chose Dover because of the old trucks you get. I’m really not a fan of new gens to be honest; I’d give anything to be born 10 years before so that I can experience the Magnums & FH1s & 2s & 3s, and the old Scania 2-4 series and the XF95s, and the old Merc MP1s & 2s. They’re so rare now, your best chance of seeing them is either in Dover or Northern Ireland!
      Thanks for your comment. Great to see an og spotter here 😊

      @ss.spotting  Месяц назад

      These suggestions are great! I really want to spot on the Via Baltica, just need to find the time. I’ve spotted in Montenegro in the Balkans back in August this year. That was absolutely amazing.
      As for Türkiye, it’s my dream to spot there. So many amazing old trucks. I’ll go there in maybe 2026.
      And for the Brennerpass, might just be one of the best places in the world for truck spotting. You get everything coming through there, the old trucks from Eastern Europe & the Balkans, whilst also getting the customised new gens. I would love to go there in maybe

      For real! After I cut that clip, he stopped next to me and rolled down his window and quite aggressively asked why I was filming him. I told him I was an enthusiast and I was filming for RUclips and his demeanour changed instantly, he was super friendly after that. Was a weird interaction!
